Scientific titleThe efficacy of disease-specific nutritional support compared with usual treatment in hemodialysis patients
Study acronymRenilon 7.5 study.
Study objectivesThe nutritional status of patients supplemented with Renilon 7.5 for three months will be improved compared with patients who receive the standard treatment. Nutritional status will be assessed by a significant improvement after three months of treatment by the following parameters: normalized protein catabolic rate (nPCR), serum albumin, serum pre-albumin, serum creatinine and dry-body weight.
Ethics approval(s)Not provided at time of registration
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedEnd-stage renal disease
InterventionDuration of intervention: three months.
Intervention group: standard therapy and in addition, a daily nutritional energy-dense (2 kcal/ml) supplement containing 7.5 g/100ml of demineralised whey protein and very low amount of minerals (especially phosphate) which provides 500 kcal of energy and 18.8 gram protein.
Control group: all subjects in the control group received standard therapy.
